About this artwork
Calypso, for those who may not know, is an Afro-Caribbean musical style that originated on the islands of Trinidad & Tobago. When Parhelion began working on this painting, he had no especial theme in mind, but was experimenting with rhythm and colour. When it was over, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the canvas... but when he turned it on end and stood it up (as displayed), all the elements fell into place before his eyes! He found he had encapsulated… the surging rhythm of the Caribbean beat, the beat that moves heart and body to and fro like the waves crashing and retreating on island shores.
« I aim to directly communicate symbolism to the viewer, bypassing preconceived notions and striking to the heart of the relationship between viewer and artwork, observer and observed. »
Fred Phillips, also known as Parhelion, is a painter based in Barbados whose works highlight the act of creation itself as the ultimate message. He views life as vibrant, filled with riotous energy that is in constant motion, which he embodies in his works through the use of raw colors. For Phillips, a spontaneous demonstration of creativity is the very antithesis of despair. His abstract expressionist works are created using acrylics on canvas.
